So, at 56k and ESP, couple of issues I've noticed for tempting fate (see my signature...)
* Intermittently, the steering column lets off a plastic crunch/click noise. This happened once the other evening, and then was repeatable for about 5 minutes in a parking lot this afternoon. Couldn't reproduce beyond. There are no codes stored for PSCM nor SCCM. Today, I had to make tighter right turns to create the noise. The previous evening, it made the sound once returning to center from a left turn. The sound does not seem to affect drivability, and appears to be coming from inside the cabin.
* Rear HVAC won't blow hot air if commanded from the Sync 3 controls--but will blow hot air if commanded from the rear passenger. If I command it manually from the front, there is a blowing air noise (speed is there), but no air ever enters the rear of the cabin. If passenger in rear initiates, all works fine. If I initiate, the problem exists regardless of whether or not the rear passenger's controls have been locked.
